8-Aminopyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid trisodium salt (often abbreviated as APTS) is a highly water-soluble, anionic fluorescent dye, which is primarily used as a sensitive labeling reagent in carbohydrate and glycoprotein analysis. Due to its high negative charge (as a resultf of it`s three sulfonic acid groups and a reactive primary amine, it is exceptionally well-suited for the derivatization of reducing sugars via reductive amination.
The Key Scientific applications of APTS are
Homobifunctional cross-linking reagent; e.g. isolation of insulin receptor
DSG is disuccinimidyl glutarate, a simple homobifunctional crosslinker builded on the amine-reactive N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester group at both sidws of a 7.7 angstrom spacer arm. It is used for crosslinking the amine moiety of several molecules. DSG is cell membrane-permeable and it is used in ChIP assays to determine DNA-protein binding interactions.
